Are they pricey? Yes. But are they worth the expense? You're damn right they are. See 11 of our favorite picks right here.

The Moisturizing SPF

The Moisturizing SPF

Just a hunch, but your face is probably important to you, which is why you should moisturize and protect it from UV rays on a regular basis. Sure, you can use a drug store brand to do this, but most are riddled with controversial preservatives and made with cheap, chemically formulated ingredients you might not want to apply to your skin daily. MD Solar Science's daily moisturizer was created by dermatologic oncologist and clinical professor at the NYU School of Medicine with nine of the most powerful wrinkle-fighting anti-oxidants, a powerful (and oxybenzone free) broad-band SPF that's been set to time release, and calming agents that make it a perfect stand-in for aftershave.

The Eye Cream

The Eye Cream

Eye cream is dainty, but don't pretend you're not intrigued. So small, yet always so expensive. Even the cheap stuff, which is lame. But given that most guys start to show signs of aging with crows feet around the eyes — and that hangover-face is most apparent when dark circles form beneath your eye balls — it's an evil worth exploring. What makes Innovative Skincare stand above less expensive fare is their use of a pharmaceutical-grade Centella Asiatica (gotu kola) extract. It's a magic-bullet ingredient that can be found in other eye creams, and the guys at IS explained to us why so little costs so much: The Centella Asiatica they use is 1,000 times more effective than the cosmetic-grade stuff found in most brands. The cosmetic-grade is $50 per kilo, the pharmaceutical stuff is $3,000 per kilo. We've been testing it through the winter and, while we have no scientific evidence to support the 1,000x effectiveness claim, we can say that it's gotten us through more than a few sloppy mornings.
